HVAC 126 - Duct Design and Installation Applications

Lecture - Lab - Credit Hours: 2-2-3
This course is designed to give the students actual hands-on experience sizing and designing duct system layouts. The duct system must be carefully designed and properly installed to maintain adequate indoor airflow velocities. The students will use “duct calculators” to figure duct sizes. After the students calculate duct sizes, they will install an entire working system. This will include main plenum attached to the furnace, main branch duct runs (supply and return), install with balancing dampers, and start unit and take velocity reading. Prerequisite: HVAC 124  or consent of department.
